I find the talk about "borrowing" is off topic as Blizzard does it for every patch that comes out. It's not new and it's really relevant to the title of the thread which is "PTR Patch 3.2.0 User Interface Notes". There were a few posts here that aren't really directly relevant to the changes in the UI in 3.2.

They could of been copied and pastied into say the "Curse & WoWI defend authors thread" and they would of been more relevant there.

I don't happen to agree.

I think this thread will be useful to the addon authors who seek help in updating their addons.

I don't believe that having a seperate thread for addon authors to discuss the changes in the API is useful as it means the casual user will at the very least get informed about changes in their addons that might effect them. That and there is 2 other threads I linked in one of my first posts here that will suit that purpose just as well.
